Hello Guys,
I’m trying to understand the way to go here. I want to secure as much as possible my connection from my ansible box to the guests. In terms of Linux i already have all the communication based on SSH keys. In terms of windows i have it working via https && user and pass. (basic authentication.)
[jesus@ansible]$ ansible -i inventories/9networks/hosts 9test -m win_ping -v --extra-vars “@./inventories/9networks/win_servers.yml” --ask-vault-pass
Using /home/jesus/ansible_project_creation/ansible.cfg as config file
Vault password:
9test1 | SUCCESS => {
“changed”: false,
“ping”: “pong”
I want to upgrade this to a higher standard but all the solutions that I’ve faced so far requires an active directory / Keberos which is not suitable for my scenario. I need to keep things as much simple as possible. Can someone point me in the right direction to configure winrm connections via certificate authentication? I can’t install any AD on the environment. How to make winrm secure connections with certificates?
Thank-you for all the possible help.
